She knew Archfiend Antigonus was a strict man, but she did not expect him to punish her in that manner. She had lost all power and would be imprisoned. It was an even worse fate than death.
Morticia wanted to beg for mercy in her panic, but she stopped herself before she could say anything.
She was the most familiar with Archfiend Antigonus. He would not spare her if she begged for mercy in that situation. She was concerned that she would face harsher punishment in the end.
"Your Excellency!" Forsythe was shocked. He quickly knelt on the ground and pleaded, "Your Excellency, please forgive me. Her Majesty just said that the whole thing was a mistake. She did not mean to be pregnant with Darryl's child.
"It's all Darryl's fault. Please, forgive Her Majesty..."
Forsythe had a panicked expression on his face because he was worried about Morticia. He would still be a nameless pirate leader if it were not for her.
Morticia could be said to have given him everything he had then. As a result, when he saw Morticia being punished, he could not stand by and watch.
"What's the matter?"
When he saw him pleading, Archfiend Antigonus' face grew even colder. He smirked and said, "Do you have any reservations about my judgment? Do you think I was too harsh?" When Archfiend Antigonus spoke, his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
No one in the fiend race dared to question Archfiend Antigonus' words as Archfiend Antigonus of the fiend race. However, the person in front of him dared to intercede on Morticia's behalf. He was flirting with death.
Feeling the killing intent emanating from Archfiend Antigonus, Forsythe could not help but gulp, and a chill ran up his spine from the soles of his feet.
Morticia's body trembled. She quickly said to Forsythe, "Don't say anything. Apologize to His Excellency." Others might not know what kind of a person Archfiend Antigonus was, but Morticia knew him all too well.
Anyone who dared to defy his will would suffer the consequences.
When Forsythe heard that, he wiped the cold sweat from his brow and said to Archfiend Antigonus, "I dare not..."
"Then what are we waiting for? Take Morticia to the water dungeon, and then come back to see me. I have something important to ask you to do."
"Yes, Your Excellency!"
